I'm reading The Regulators... for the first time! That's right, I am reading a brand spanking new (to me) Stephen King book! A friend was giving away bags of hardbacks and paperbacks because she had bought an e-reader. She gave me a good mix and I asked if she had any King--she told me that she'd already given all of his away (doh!) and handed me three big bags. There was a Bachman in the bottom of the third bag and I thought... hmmm, you don't know who he is, do you...? My gain. :biggrin2:

Finished The Thirteenth Tale this morning. Very sad story, full of loneliness and isolation. Had somewhat of an uplifting ending though.
I read this a long time ago but do recall really liking it. The atmosphere the author created initially never flagged and the ending was very good. Last year I believe her second book finally came out and from what I've seen and heard it has had less than stellar welcome.

Awesome. Could have been so much better though. Do you have many more sk's yet to read?
